The idea begins to prevail in Euro
pean armies that it is better to wound
n man in battle than to kill him, as
more men are taken ont of line to care
for wounded man than for Il dead
one. Hence opinion at present favors
small bore for the magazine rifles
now being introduced, and the average
gauge adopted is about three-tcnths of
an inch only, instead of the half-inch
gauge hitherto in use in Europe and in
this country. An advantage of the
smaller bore is that the soldier can
carry more rounds of ammunition.
His gun also can be made lighter.

KEEPER MAEsr, of the Erie County

KEEPER MAEsT, of the Erie County
almshouse, says that in his experience,
one of the peculiar freaks of insanity is
the seeming reversal of natural tenden-
cies. For instanceI,' he says, "we
have in the male wards, fine collections
of potted plants and climbing vines,
which grow so luxuriantly that they
curtain the windows. The men tend
these carefully. pluck away the dead
leaves. stir up the dirt in the pots.
prune the vines, keep them carefully
watered, and in divers other ways
manifest the tenderest watchfulness.
Not so with the women, who pull out
the plants by the roots, tear down the
vines, and manifest other destructive
tendencies entirely mt variance with
the nature of the sen in general"
